Fishing

Fishing and hunting has always been of life in the Tennessee Overhill. Native American’s built fish weirs (traps) on rivers and hunted the forests and riverbottoms for game. The Cherokee National Forest, 4 rivers, 4 lakes, and private farms that open for special hunts provide plenty of opportunities for anglers and hunters.
